Well, you seem to have erased the reference number of the watch wich is really not a secret... The numbers in the box are the ref number and underneath the box, in a smaller font, the serial number is marked. Perhaps it's the pic but I don't see one on yours.....

Yes the watch is newer SO A17364 but id had the rubber strap which I dont like. This is why I bought used ss strap. Im not familiar with the numbers of Breitling bracelets, thats why I asked. Just wanted to make sure I didnt buy a toy version

Be aware there is a very good fake of the A17364, so equal care must be taken by the bracelets.
I don't know about this one but the machining on the spring bar access slots looks a little rough?

I think that's because of the pic. Just looked at a bracelet out of my stock and looks the same. I would be more concerned by the fact the watch doesn't seem to have a SN.

Hmmm, just had another look at the pics and was looking at the 878A ref. Isn't that the ref for a Professional I bracelet? Could be wrong but I think it is....

Hi! Yes the watch has serials (its complete set with e-warranty cards etc) but i've erased the serial by photoshop. About the bracelet - I don't know if its Pro I or II. Looks like II but maybe the end links are from Pro I - I have no idea. I think I'm going to show it to Breitling service tomorrow..

878A is a 20mm Pro I bracelet. Looks like someone fitted the end links from one, on to a 811A Pro II braclet.
